Fire in Arunachal Pradesh Town Kills Four, Destroys 24 Houses
A fire broke out early Thursday in Parsi-Parlo town, Kurung Kumey district, Arunachal Pradesh, destroying 24 houses and killing four family members—a woman and her three minor children. The woman's husband remains missing, raising concerns over the death toll. The blaze, possibly originating in a kitchen, spread rapidly due to limited firefighting resources; the nearest fire tender from Koloriang, 38 km away, arrived late. Officials are conducting rescue and relief operations, with damage assessment ongoing.
